  3. Using the data recorded earlier and the Bearing Select Fit Chart, determine the required bearing grade for the main bearings.

    1. Look at the bearing select fit chart and for each main, match the block and crankshaft code with its corresponding column or row by reading across the crankshaft row and down the block column to select the proper grade bearings for each main.
    2. For example, if the block code is GLMD and the crankshaft code is PNLO, main No. 1 should be assembled with grade 2 upper and lower bearings, as determined by the intersection of the

      block column and the

      crankshaft row. Main No. 2 should be assembled with grade 3 upper and lower bearings. Main No. 3 should be assembled with grade 3 upper and grade 4 lower bearings. Main No. 4 should be assembled with grade 2 upper and lower bearings.
